Swiss Family Robinson Set Images

Two more images from the 1990s press kit. First up is the unnamed ship that the family was being transported and is the source of much of the items used in the Treehouse. Looking at several sources, the ship is unnamed in the film, named the Recovery for Disneyland, then Titus where the name of the ship at Walt Disney World is the Swallow. This set was constructed on location in Tobago.

The second image shows John Mills as Father and Dorothy McGuire as mother walking up the ladder to the barebones frame of the Treehouse. The animals in the scene all had to be imported as there were no indigenous wildlife on Tobago.
